She was also put on probation for three years and ordered to repay the money with $173 monthly payments. Her jail sentence includes work release privileges.
The store manager told investigators about $6,200 was missing, and Holm acknowledged “sometimes she took $600 to pay her rent and other times the money she took was to pay for her cell phone bill and other items that she was not able to afford,” the criminal complaint said.
“Holm said she would take money from the deposit bag at night and replace the money taken that night from the deposit bag from the following night,” according to a police report. “She indicated the more she did this the less she was able to keep up.”
